I have a lot of points to make and I will make them later.

I'm having trouble piecing together the scam here. The scammers actually sent the artist $90,000 for NFTs, and then managed to get the money back? Flying this guy out to wherever and putting on a big show meeting, and 90,000 in money being floated, was all done to acquire NFTs without paying for them?

They somehow missed the part where getting an NFT for free is easy, you just make an NFT of an artist's work without asking them. Boom, save yourself 30 minutes of coffeeshop time with the artist and the 90k cash in hand requirement

Oh, the fact he was selling NFTs had nothing to do with the $90k stolen from his wallet in an in-person meeting.

yeah the scammers asked for him to open his account to prove he had the liquidity for whatever they were asking for

wonder what their plan would have been if he had had better opsec. maybe there wasn't a plan. crypto scumbags are also opportunists
